Given that x2+y2=16x−26y−133, what is the biggest value that 6x−8y can have?

Note that   <span>x^2+y^2=16x−26y−133  represents a circle.

x^2 - 16x + y^2 + 26y = 133

x^2 - 16x + 64 - 64 + y^2 + 26y + 169 - 169 = 133 (completing the square)

Then (x-8)^2 - 64 + (y+13)^2 - 169 = 133

Simplifying, (x-8)^2 + (y+13)^2 = 133 + 169 + 64  =  366

This circle acts as a constraint on the value of 6x-8y.  Assume that x and y are both on the circle.  Just supposing that x = 10, find y:

(10-8)^2 + (y+13)^2 = 366, or 4 + (y+13)^2 = 366, or (y+13)^2 = 362

This is a quadratic equation that could be solved for y, and the result(s) could be subst. into the expression 6x-8y.

If you were to repeat this exercise several times, for different values of x, you'd come up with various values of 6x-8y and in that way approach (if not find) a definite answer to "</span><span>Given that x2+y2=16x−26y−133, what is the biggest value that 6x−8y can have?"

Hope someone else can come up with a more elegant approach.</span>

Quadrilateral HGEF is a scaled copy of quadrilateral DCAB. What is themeasurement of lin EG?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

14 units

Explanation:

If quadrilaterals HGEF and DCAB are similar, then the ratio of some corresponding sides is:

\frac{FH}{BD}=\frac{EG}{AC}

Substitute the given side lengths:

\begin{gathered} \frac{6}{3}=\frac{EG}{7} \\ 2=\frac{EG}{7} \\ \implies EG=2\times7 \\ EG=14 \end{gathered}

The measurement of line EG is 14 units.

Adam uses count milk for tge dessert the canvas 13cm high and 8cm diameter using formula v=r2h what's the total of milk on the c
bonufazy [111]
If the diameter is 8 centimeters, the radius is 4.  We can use the formula v=r^2h\pi and plug in r=4 and h=13 to get v=16*13*\pi, so v=208\pi.
